The question of ufos

[C(Sea)Bass]

Is an anal probe the ET's version of petting?

ET the Extra Testicle

[Meatwad]

I know nothing 

[DREDIOCK]

Of COURSE they exist!

How else would you explain Hillary?

I've heard a story where a U.S. airbase in Ohio scrambled P-51s after a UFO flew by, may have been something, but it sure wasn't German... My Dad had told me that, not sure if it was his Dad that told him...

If you really think there is no life somewhere besides here on earth...     .... nm

Cbass I really appreciate and respect Hawking.He is w/o a doubt one of the most intelligent humans there is,but he really hosed that statement.I think professional pilots,law enforcement officers and many others,aren't exactley cranks and weirdos.

It seems the speech was pretty light hearted, judging by the joke about KFC and Big Macs too.

Well according to Tom Cruise, 75 million years ago Galactic Emporor Xenu sent out tax audit demands to billions of people scattered among 76 planets. As each one entered the audit centers for the income tax inspections, the people were seized, held down and injected with a mixture of alcohol and glycol, and frozen. Then, all 1.4 trillion of these frozen people were put into spaceships that looked exactly like DC8 airplanes, except that the spaceships had rocket engines instead of turbines.

Xenu's entire fleet of DC8-like spaceships then flew to planet Earth, where the frozen people were dumped in and around volcanoes in the Canary Islands and the Hawaiian Islands. When Xenu's Air Force had finished dumping the bodies into the volcanoes, hydrogen bombs were dropped into the volcanoes and the frozen space aliens were destroyed.

Holden McGroin is not joking.

And we also have the Scumdogs of the Universe living here.

I said it before and I repeat it:
Here is a scary thought for you - what if WE are the super, most intelligent beings in the universe and everyone else are even more stupid than us?

You got to hand it to those aliens. They developed space technology and interstellar travel, just to be able to come to earth and stick a probe into some dude's bellybutton - and all for science!

This is what I call thinking big, while humans argue about relative pennies spent on projects like the LHC.

[Holden McGroin]

Holden McGroin is not joking.

That's the funniest part about it.

[moot]

Bozon for all we know, those anal probes integraly map the human body, molecule by molecule..  And maybe the space tech is just that cheap for them.  Occam's razor and all.

"More likely, he added, is that primitive life is likely to develop, but intelligent life as we know it is exceedingly rare."

Note: "but intelligent life as we know it is exceedingly rare"

Of course they exist.

You just have to know where to look for them on the old maps...
